The engine should start and stop from the key by the driver. My coach has only two switches, a toggle Safety and a Start lever. When the Safety is turned off, the vehicle will not start from either the front or the rear. This is used by mechanics to avoid having someone accidentally start the engine while they are working on it. Therefore it should be in the on position. The Start lever is used to actually start the coach. It has an OFF, ON and START position just like the key used to start the engine inside. It should be in the Off position unless you are trying to start the engine from the rear compartment. Having the Start lever in the ON position is likely the reason the coach will not shut off from the inside. That said, the key in the front should start the coach with the Start lever in the centered/OFF position.
Although I do not have the Over Ride switch, I suspect, based on the way the system functions on my coach, it is to be off under normal circumstances and turned on to allow the engine to start with the transmission in gear. My manual indicates that the rear start will automatically bypass the neutral safety switch but I don't have the separate Over Ride switch.
